    That is a thorny question

    I believe it’s a sum of multiple reasons

    First,the people who were foolishly led into thinking that capitalism would be better didn’t want to admit they were wrong and dug their heels in and attributed every failure to the nebulous “legacy of communism”

    Second,the latent reactionary sentiments

    Third,the inferiority complex we all seem to have,this desire to join the ranks of the West in the vain hope we get a fraction of their prosperity

    And fourth,you have to understand,when I say the history was rewritten by gusanos and revisionist traitors,it was rewritten.30 years have gone by since Communism fell,and now all the middle aged people and the young adults were taught a twisted version of history and it’s been turbocharged by the unsatisfactory development brought by capitalism and the poverty that still exists

    As for why the Baltics and Poland are the worst,I can’t say,since Romania had different conditions,but my thinking is that they got the somewhat less bad deal and are more integrated than the rest of the former Warsaw Pact,same goes for Czechia

      Not only was the Eastern Bloc looted,but it’s very ideological base was uprooted and it’s very society shattered and then remoulded through heavy US and EU interference to become the perfect vassal region
